Step Into the History of Victoria at Evergreen Cemetery
Tucked beside the serene grounds of Riverside Park lies Evergreen Cemetery — a solemn and sacred place where Victoria’s story quietly endures. As the final resting place of the city’s founders, including multiple members of the De Leon family, and many of its earliest settlers, Evergreen offers a unique window into the lives that shaped our community.
More than just a cemetery, Evergreen is hallowed ground — a place to reflect, remember, and honor the pioneering spirits who built the foundation of Victoria. Walking among these time-worn headstones, visitors are invited to connect with the past in a way that no history book can provide.
We invite you to visit with reverence. See the markers for veterans of the Texas Revolution, Mexican-American War, and the Civil War. Whether you're a student of history, a descendant retracing your roots, or a curious traveler, let your footsteps be mindful, and your heart open to the legacy resting here.
